www.bestbidding.com

Best Bidding has a professional appearance, however, the categories are referenced as separate internet domains and tend to confuse the viewer with the prefix "Best". Site navigation is clumsy when checking category listings. Where there are no category listings, the content section of the webpage is empty, and there is no return button back to the category listings.

www.tradersoup.com

Tradersoup auction site has a wordy front page because the front page design is focused on the category listings. Although the Traderoup logo reads "Buy Sell Trade Auction", there is no indication that this auction site permits trading or negotiation-purchases. The main focus on the front page of Tradersoup is the category listing of auctions, with little to catch-the-eye except words and an item count within each category listed. Below the category listing, the viewer can see a small group of Featured Auctions.

Featured items and Featured Search results are easily viewed with the basic information and small thumbnail photograph. The site has an interesting Auction section enabling the viewer to select types of auctions to review, such as "Red Hot Auctions" or "Going Going Gone Auctions". (Tradersoup.com is growing at a fast pace, many E-bay sellers and buyers are joining this online auction site.)

Worth Noting:
* There are no FAQs available, nor is there a readily-accessible Fee schedule on any final value selling fees
* Rating/feedback count is determined with individual items sales, not unique buyer/seller.
* User Profile easy to review and shows current total of auction listings, website URL (if applicable), total posts in site forum.

Short summary about the site by the owner

As the name suggests we're a games specific auc tion site. We spent a good 6-8 months listening and learning about how we could improve on current sites and build a service that would better serve gamer's requirements.
We have a 100% no Spam and no Piracy policy, complete with acknowledgement from ELSPA (www.elspa.com) to back these claims up. Piracy in the videogames auction market is rife and something gamers (buyers) are fed up with.
We launched to the public in June this year and have received plenty of positive press in the gaming community. Our highlight to date was the successful listing and subsequent sale of a rare videogame that fetched $1200 (US) to a collector in the Middle East, this was one sale that showed the calibre of members we've attracted to date.
We're a very forward thinking site, we know the games market and we would more than welcome any comments, questions or opinions. We listen to comments and make changes where appropriate.
